Little Caesars(R) Pizza Targets St. Louis For Major Growth

Earthtimes:

Industry leader Little Caesars, well known for its innovative ‘Pizza!Pizza!(R)’ promotion and more recently, the convenient, value and quality oriented HOT-N-READY(R) offering, is growing its pizza chain in St. Louis. ‘From its thriving metropolitan area to the city’s growing manufacturing and retail sectors, St. Louis is a great place for entrepreneurs to bring the best in carry-out pizza,’ said David Scrivano, president, Little Caesar Enterprises, Inc.

During the next 10 years, Little Caesars plans to open upwards of 60 locations throughout the St. Louis-area and employ approximately 1,500 local residents. Currently, there are 19 Little Caesars locations in the market including locations in both Madison and St. Clair counties.

‘St. Louis families love Little Caesars’ fresh HOT-N-READY(R) pizza and really appreciate the convenience and value we offer,’ said Dale Beck, Little Caesars franchisee in the St. Louis-area. ‘Little Caesars‘ growth in St. Louis will allow more consumers to experience our great tasting products. We use the finest ingredients, including dough made fresh in our stores, fresh, never-frozen cheese, and sauce made with vine-ripened tomatoes.’

Before becoming a Little Caesars franchisee, Beck worked as an assembly line worker at Ford Motor Company’s St. Louis Plant. When Ford offered to buy out some workers at the plant in 2006, Beck looked for an opportunity to be his own boss in a different industry and join a company with a proven system, strong brand recognition and growth potential.
